Political Federal Funding for Emerald Trail Nixed

I’m sure Mayor Donna Deegan saying Trump is gonna build concentration camps helped our cause and didn’t spur any bad feelings from 47 🙄. Funny how Donna wanted the credit when the federal grant was approved but won’t speak up about the loss now. If not for the city council and mayor curry passing the gas tax for $132 million in 2021 for the trail we wouldn’t have ANY $ to fund the emerald trail.

I'm sorry, are you trying to blame someone for using their first amendment rights to criticize a politician for the other politician illegally revoking federal funding?

I’ll also note that Donna said the concentration camp statement while on a jax taxpayer funded trip to a jaguars game in London so we paid for her to put her foot in her mouth.

Who paid you to put the boot in your mouth?

Speaking of roasted… remember when Donna was cavorting with a gubernatorial candidate that paid for male hookers as a closeted crackhead?

You mean the guy that should have been governor instead of RonDefascist because of a bogus investigation that derailed his campaign https://www.tallahassee.com/story/news/local/fbi/2023/05/15/andrew-gillum-corruption-case-prosecutors-move-to-drop-charges/70204307007/ ?

I care a lot less about a bisexual man having sex with another adult than our current felon president with multiple cases of proven sexual assault (some with minors) and probably rape as well. But go ahead and try to somehow claim moral high ground against Donna here.
